If you're clicking an all tab that means it's merged and not quite applicable.

we 1 shotted it/only 1 attempt
still not applicable?

Having a Nin or Bard to be generous with the TP helps a lot too. Allows you to Rockbreaker during the add phase a lot more. Could Rockbreaker the Gust if you kill the Pain quick enough, Rockbreaker the first set of Sins if you stack them, Rockbreaker the Gust X Twin X Sin. Etc.. Thats some more dps if people haven't been doing that already. Along with that, making sure your last rotation on the adds isn't a buff rotation is also a dps increase. Spreading dots if you can't rockbreaker helps, saving Howling Fists during certain parts of add phase helps, having an add up while you transfer into last phase helps you save a PB, depending on your luck with MF and ES too you can squeeze some more dps out of there by applying dots correctly and taking risks with positionals.

i use rockbreaker on adds nowadays, seems tp not an issue on p3

Yes. It's not about attempts, it's about the downtime not counting when you stop attacking the boss and your parser stops ticking (as in the down-time is there but the numbers pretend it's not). Any non-merged parse will only have one page with zero breaks or stopping.

Gotta set the culling to 40+ seconds.

alright gotta try that next time, i thought it's the same in ALL tab if it 1 shot/attempt

Basically merged parses look amazingly high, but a lot of the time some of those numbers just.. arent possible. It's a ton easier to get 500+ when your encounter is a minute shorter :P

Should honestly not even worry about doing DK first with PB in last phase. The damage from the first Akh Morn will most likely be overhealed anyway from the couple of heals required to top tanks.
GL stacks sooner > Unneeded mitigation.

tfw your raid won't leave a mob up through Teraflare for stacks.

Hey guys, I'm currently on T10 with my static on my DRG, and I want to start gearing up my MNK to be able to push out the most DPS it can for the start of FCOB.

This is my current gear. I'm pulling about 460 DPS, and I'm still getting used to my rotation again. This is on a dummy with no party buffs, food or pots. Is this a good range?

Also, where should I go with my gear and what stats should I focus more overall?

I heard that some MNK's over in JP are focusing SS. Is this a good thing to do?
